14 SEP - OCT 2019 H OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS Lisa Lipton: Soon All Your Memories Will Be With Me ART GALLERY OF ALBERTA, Edmonton AB - To Oct 20 by Michael Turner First through literature, and then through fi lm, science fi ction has played an important role in defi n- ing who we are, what we desire, what we fear and why. Although it is speculative in nature, the genre’s most resonant examples are as attentive to the past as they are to an imagined future. This is evident in the title of Lisa Lipton’s multimedia installation Soon All Your Memories Will Be With Me (2019), where the future’s “Soon” Lisa Lipton, from Soon All Your Memories Will Be With Me, 2019 implies a sequence of yet-to-be- lived events, parts of which will be interred as “Memories.” Taking her cue from Cordwainer Bird’s Canadian-produced science fi ction series The Starlost (1973-74), Lipton’s story, like many sci-fi fi lms, is a rescue mission. In this instance, three as- tronauts race through space to save descendants of a human civilization onboard The Ship Ultimo. Most notable here is Lipton’s use of production methods and equipment from the same era as Starlost – this time with a woman in the lead role. The e ect is jarring and, like the best contemporary art, rewards repeated viewings. Lipton is a visual artist, musician and director whose practice is focused on site specifi city, localized collaboration and social interaction in fi lm, installation, performance, theatre and music. She has exhibited her work nationally and internationally, and her nominations include both the short and long lists for the Sobey Art Award. Originally from Halifax, she completed degrees at NASCAD (BFA) and the University of Windsor (MFA) before moving to Calgary, where she is an assistant professor in sculpture at the Alberta University of the Arts. youraga.ca

18 SEP - OCT 2019 H OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS Hockey NANAIMO MUSEUM, Nanaimo BC - Sep 14 - Nov 24 by Michael Turner Those who grew up in Canada in the 1960s know it as Canada’s O cial Trick Question: What is Canada’s national sport? To the un- informed the answer was hockey, but the correct an- swer was a game that had been played before Euro- pean “contact”: lacrosse. It took until 1994 for the feder- al government to amend the National Sports of Canada John H. Boyd / City of Toronto Archives, May 8, 1945, Fonds 1266, Item 96241 Act along seasonal lines: lacrosse in the summer, hockey in the winter. Visitors can expect facts like this – along with plenty of pucks, pads and pictures – at the Nanaimo Museum this fall. A travelling exhibition generated by the Canadian Museum of History, Hockey eschews the “hall of fame” approach by privileging stories over objects. Rather than seeing a painting of Bobby Hull next to the stick he used to pot his 500th National Hockey League goal, we learn that Manon Rhéaume was the fi rst woman to play in an NHL game, and that Sheldon Kennedy was the fi rst NHLer to speak publicly about the mental and sexual abuse he and others experi- enced as teenagers in the Western Hockey League. “The Canadian Museum of History is thrilled to share Hockey with the people of Nanaimo,” says Mark O’Neill, president and CEO of the CMH. “Whether we hit the ice or cheer from our living rooms, hockey is more than just a game to Canadians. It has helped shape our history and our national identity from coast to coast to coast.” As an added, interactive bonus, visitors will be able to record themselves calling an NHL game. For those weaned on CBC’s Hockey Night in Canada, here’s your chance to scream it in a museum: “He shoots, he scores!” nanaimomuseum.ca

24 SEP - OCT 2019 H OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS Spill MORRIS AND HELEN BELKIN ART GALLERY, Vancouver BC - Sep 3 - Dec 1 by Michael Turner If one were asked to name liquids mentioned most during news broadcasts, oil, water and blood would likely top the list. No sur- prise that they are related. Water is essential to life, yet its protection inter- feres with those arguing for oil pipelines. Heat that up and you get blood, ei- ther boiled or spilled. For her current exhibition, the Belkin’s Lorna Brown has Carolina Caycedo, Serpent River Book, 2017 (detail), artist's book taken the latter verb and, like these liquids, run with it, emphasizing artworks that draw attention to “our continental waters and the conditions of their impaired movement, contamination and political rights.” Comprised of “live” research, installations, performance and radio programming, Spill fea- tures work by Carolina Caycedo, Nelly César, Guadalupe Martinez, Teresa Montoya, Anne Riley, Genevieve Robertson, Susan Schuppli and T’uy’t’tanat Cease Wyss. Spill Response, cu- rated by Martinez, privileges the gallery as a site for embodiment and features a collaboration of visiting artist César, Riley and Wyss. Throughout the project, Spill Radio, curated by Tatiana Mellema, is broadcasting radio episodes in collaboration with UBC’s CiTR 101.9 FM. In Nature Represents Itself (2018), Schuppli examines the Deepwater Horizon accident through a simulated image built from gaming software. Another video work, Robertson’s Still Running Water (2017), derives from an ongoing project focused on the Columbia River. Caycedo’s Serpent River Book (2017) compiles images and texts from the artist’s work in Co- lombian, Brazilian and Mexican communities a ected by the privatization of river systems. And Montoya’s Yellow Water (2016) uses photography to trace the e ects of mine waste dis- charged into the San Juan River, which fl ows across the Navajo Nation.

PHANTOMS IN THE FRONT YARD Deer Lake Gallery, Burnaby. To Sep 14 The most recent show by the collective known as Phantoms in the Front Yard, curat- ed by Pennylane Shen, includes representational art by Michael Abraham, Jeremy Birnbaum, Andrea Hooge, Paul Morstad, Jay Senetchko and Jonathan Sutton. Although working in many di erent styles, from high realist to comically stylized, PHANTOMS IN THE FRONT YARD members of PITFY all focus on the human fi gure, which they feel has been “banished to the backyard” by contemporary art movements and theories.
SURFER’S PARADISE: NORTHWEST COAST SURFBOARDS Alcheringa Gallery, Victoria.

Their designs explore not only individual and cultural identity, but also the artists’ relationship with the ocean – a

OH NIGHTINGALE: PARVIZ TANAVOLI West Vancouver Art Museum, West Vancouver. To Oct 5 Parviz Tanavoli, the internationally acclaimed Iranian-Canadian artist, is strongly asso- ciated with his monumental bronze sculptures, many of them marrying the precepts of Western Modernism with ancient Middle Eastern art and architecture. This WVAM show, however, surveys six decades of his more modestly scaled works, including jewelry, wearable art, paintings, prints and small sculptures. These forms allow him, PARVIZ TANAVOLI, WVAM says, “to explore the themes of freedom, nothingness, poetry and history.” BIRD AND TREE, 2006 COURTESY OF THE ARTIST
THROUGH HER EYES: WORKS FROM OUR PERMANENT COLLECTION Kelowna Art Gallery, Kelowna. To Nov 17 The landscape subject has long compelled Canadian artists, many inspired by the ways it can speak to a culture’s evolving relationship with the natural world. This ex- hibition focuses on 14 women artists represented in the KAG collection, including Ann Kipling, Daphne Odjig and Erin Shirre . The works date from the 1930s to the present ERIN SHIRREFF, LAKE, 2012 VIDEO STILL and range from broad vistas to closely observed details, allowing viewers to consider PROMISED GIFT OF THE ARTIST, IN MEMORY OF HILARY SHIRREFF whether women bring “particular perspectives or sensibilities” to the landscape.

Cave to Dream speaks of the artist’s interest in the cycles of nature – of SALT, 2019 VIDEO STILL life and death – and the world of the spirits evoked in Japanese folklore and rituals.
LESLEY FINLAYSON: FILTER/ED Elissa Cristall Gallery, Vancouver. Oct 3 - 26 Scottish-born, Vancouver-based Lesley Finlayson paints landscape sketches en plein air, in the tradition of the French Impressionists and Canada’s Group of Seven. Her most recent series of highly gestural works focuses on light fi ltering through the nat- ural environment of the West Coast. Finlayson writes that she hopes “to project an idea of the moment … seeing the landscape unfold before me.” The play of weather e ects is echoed in the varied formal qualities of her medium. LESLEY FINLAYSON, FILTER / ED #1, 2019 ELISSA CRISTALL GALLERY PHOTO: LESLEY FINLAYSON preview-art.com PREVIEW 27 Salt Spring National Art Prize Finalists’ Exhibition MAHON HALL, Salt Spring Island BC - Sep 21 - Oct 21 by Deirdre Rowland Established in 2015, the Salt Spring National Art Prize (SSNAP) provides a broad survey of art practice across Canada, repre- sented by the 52 works selected. This year’s Finalists’ Exhibi- tion will feature artists from Corner Brook, NL, to Port Hardy, BC, as well as major urban centres. According to SSNAP juror cheyanne turions, curator at SFU Galleries and member of the board of directors at 221A, both in Vancouver, SSNAP takes the temperature of what artists across Canada are exploring, “The art prize allows us to see what artists in Canada are visioning in their work and what they feel it is urgent to address in anchoring our current po- litical moment and visioning possible futures.” turions notes that SSNAP draws in a wide variety of artists from di erent Nadine Belliveau, Church Point, NS communities, providing a diverse showcase of contemporary art practices. West Coast fi nalist Meghann O’Brien, based in Vancouver, created her culturally inspired piece The Spirit of Shape, a Naaxiin (Chilkat) weaving, with materials such as cedar bark and cashmere. “The apron was one of those pieces, works that I make from a heart-centred space so I can contribute to the world in a way that is meaningful and helps the greater society recognize the value of the Indigenous world view.” East Coast fi nalist Nadine Belliveau, from Church Point, NS, has been creating professionally since 1971. Her fi nalist work, Steven Volpe, Orangeville, ON When Fish Become Fashion Coat, is a decorative expression using textural, layered large-format acrylic on canvas. To Belliveau, coats are a way for people to present themselves in society and look at what’s being covered up. A visit to Salt Spring Island for the Finalists’ Exhibition promises to take art lovers on a jour- ney. It’s an exhibition that looks to be as inclusive, diverse and culturally rich as Canada itself.

Her practice, while materially available Photo courtesy of the artist Olivia Whetung, tibewh, 2017, 10/0 Czech seed beads, nylon thread through the medium of beading, is canvas, aluminum push-pins motivated by what she calls “acts of / active native presence,” the sys- tem within which knowledge is transmitted, received and protected through the interconnec- tivity of land and language. “Beading is itself an embodied act,” writes CAG curator Kimberly Phillips, “and in Whetung’s work the sounds of words, knowledge of waterways and care of the land are carried by the beads without entirely revealing them.” For her solo exhibition at the CAG (her fi rst solo exhibition at a major public institution), Whetung has focused her inquiry on issues concerning sustainable food sources, invasive species and fl ooding in her home territory in the wake of climate changes accelerated by extractive colonial economies. Of immediate concern to the artist is the e ect these changes have had on the Anishinaabe practice of maple syruping, not only as an economic driver that helps to feed and clothe members of her community, but also as an activity through which cultural knowledge is passed on to future generations. Notable in this exhibition is Whetung’s beadwork mapping onto large-scale panels of maple, birch and cherry veneer. Although not literal depictions of travel routes, evidence of “native presence” is sensed through patterns of transmission, reception and protection. The places where these maps lead are equally various, though all are interlinked through a landscape that is home to Indigenous reclamation, sovereignty and belonging. contemporaryartgallery.ca
